No!!
No!!
you do realize that this prolly means we're all getting heavy crit padding.
RANK 16
Taryn traces the outline of a sigil into the air before you and says, "This is the Sigil of Determination, memorize it well. In your many battles with the Grimswarm, you have undoubtedly suffered the sting of steel slicing your flesh or the burning agony of magic tearing at your being. While we are far more honed to battle and its attendant pains than your average commoner, we still do suffer from our wounds. This suffering can lead to distraction and that distraction can lead to defeat. While other sigils seek to increase your attunement to your body, this one seeks to break that attunement and thereby numb the pain that you feel when wounded."
Taryn continues, "While under the influence of this sigil, you are able to completely ignore almost any penalty that you usually suffer when attempting tasks while wounded. While this sigil is powerful, it cannot contradict reality. If you suffer from severed limbs, blinded eyes, or uncontrollable convulsions, you will still be unable to perform many tasks. However, you will be able to temporarily overcome almost any other injury at the cost of 30 points of stamina. Go now, and make good use of what I have taught you."
Of course what I'm wondering is, does it stack with armor padding? If not it might drop the prices on heavy padding a bit, much the annoyance of people who spent premium points on it.
So far I don't see a single useless ability. I guess it really depends on how well distraction and intimidation work.

Did you miss the part where I posted it 5 mins ago?
Can anyone with a fair amount of ranks test the bonus that Sigil of Resolve provides?
I just got the symbol and it seems to enhance by 2 ranks. Was wondering if this gets larger.
The big question! How long do these sigils last?! 30 stamina is fairly substantial. And finally OMG someone check if these crit weightings stack upon crit/damage weighted weapons?!
I doubt any of the padding or weighting stacks.
